   Yes, I have, 3 different domains. And only 2 of them have SiteRoot
objects.

   Absoluteley not. But it is strange to see people demanding stable
software without doing something good for it. Stable software without user
support? Nonsense! It's me who make the software good! Join me and help me
(and the community).

   Now something more constructive.
   Well, I didn't do anything special. First time I installed 2.3 I
copied old Data.fs from 2.2.5, but later I found that 2.3 has much nicer
interface, and I wanted to preserve its original root folder, so I
restarted 2.2.5, exported all folders, and imported them to fresh 2.3. I
also copied all products (except for SiteAccess - it is bundled with 2.3,
finally) and reimported all ZClassess (I use 2 such Products).

   BTW, I remember now that I have a problem similar to your problem with
SiteAccess, and it is with 2.2.2. There is specail installation where
sysadmin runs Zope in a very restrictive environment (chroot, to name the
term). And there I have the problem, but I can login to site not from root,
but from main site address, and manage the site. I hope to eliminate the
problem encouraging him to upgarde to 2.3, and I'll switch to
VirtualHostMonster later.

   Then I hope you will encourage you programmers to improve Zope!
